No comment - LOL.

On the surface it appears to be a reasonable approach to maintaining what waters you currently have left in storage. Especially in light of the historical drought we currently face.

Appears Purdue is trying to be proactive and one of the most interesting sections of the letter is all the data suggesting the drought the Southeast is currently facing is not going to subside anytime soon.

Basically from what I have read Gov. Perdue is saying he is willing to push down stream what inflow comes into Seminole but no more than 5000 cfs and all additional inflow will be stored. Not sure what this does to downstream requirement on the AFC basin though, that is the real question.

Wonder if this will come up in the weekly drought conference call tomorrow with the Corps as the ACT basin needs a quantifiable plan of action as well to conserve our waters within the ACT basin.

Just hope it does not open up the Water Wars issue again (even though this matter has never been finalized and is still in the courts from my research). As the AFC and ACT Basins have been at the forefront of the water wars over the years.
